    Good buying experience,
    Nice to ride, will give you a big bike feel,
    0-100 is pretty quick, but the comfortable cruising speed is around 6400rpm in 5th gear which is 85-90. As soon as you cross 110 kph the bike tends to feel stressed. The bike is super stable at this speed and confident aspiring. I choose this bike for the usd and
    Engine refinement is the key highlight.
    City riding and daily commute are good as the bike weighs only 142 kg kerb, which makes it easy to filter through the traffic the reason I would choose a motorcycle over a car in traffic.
    Even after all the premium feel this bike has to offer service and maintenance of this bike is easy on your pocket. Use chain spray after every 300-400 km ride and keep it clean.
    Pros.
    -looks
    -usd feels premium
    -gives you a big bike feel
    -stability
    -engine refinement.
    Cons
    -plastic quality and fit and finish could have been better.
    -headlight is not for a night ride on the highway with speed.
    -the rearview mirrors are useless
    -the chassis looks so basic, could have used two rods in front instead of a single.
    -the metal parts like the muffler catches rust soon.
    The paint quality on those metal parts could have been better.
    Last, I hope honda will not discontinue this bike, instead, they will upgrade this bike into a more premium package, if they discontinue this bike as they did with the legendary cbf stunner which was the previous bike I will surely not visit a honda showroom again in future.

    Over all best bike in its segment.
    Always a thrilling while riding, riding position is very good. The service provider is not so good. Can't fix its heating problem ,in hills you can ride the bike with easy handling without any problems, power in the bike is unmatchable with its segment bikes over all its a fantastic bike by look it looks it is the bike which all watch when you ride the bike in city, eye catching looks golden upside-down forks look awesome.

  • The buying experience of a honda hornet 2.0 was really amazing

    2 years ago


    Manish

    The buying experience of buying a Honda hornet 2.0 was really amazing at bajrang Honda showroom Nagpur. Paper work was hassle free and from the day i bought this bike till date, they have been really courteous and attentive to me. Specially, the service manager and showroom owner. And finally I would like to say that it is an gorgeous bike.

    The Honda Hornet 2.0 is already a capable handler and with a frugal engine, agreeable ergos, light handling and a comfortable ride, the Hornet makes for a great city bike. Moreover, I would suggest you to take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and comfort.

    Abhishek Kumar

    The buying experience was good, staff at the showroom co-operated things nicely. The bike is way fun to ride as if I'm a honda guy the engine sound of my bike I love when I cross 6000 rpm, it's looks are also good, and nimble to ride. Low maintenance bike. Servicing was good. The cons are just its seat is stiff, compared to its rivals and everything thing is fantastic.

    Just use engine oil 10w-40 your vibs will automatically get lower. And try to drive between 3000-4000 rpm( upshift the gear) If you're crazy like me then 6000rpm+ (upshift).

  • The MOST underrated beast!!!

    9 weeks ago


    Gaurav Bawadkar

    After a very long period of searching for the perfect bike, I finally settled on Hornet 2.0
    You'll find many reviews on Youtube so no need for a detailed explanation.
    Just remember the following key points:-
    1) I am using XP95 petrol and getting 48 Kmpl in the city (Hinjewadi-Wakad) (currently riding below 60 kmph)(This is before 1st servicing!)(accurate mileage test 3 times till now)
    2) This is the 2024 model and is a lot better and improved than the 2021-22 models (Almost all the issues are resolved)
    3) For comfort- Yes it is a little stiff but here's the catch- maintain 25psi in front and 29psi in rear(with pillion) (25psi without pillion)and you'll discover a whole new additional dimension of comfort💯(based on experience)
    4) For mileage improvement- Don't use the clutch unnecessarily, gentle throttle opening, and maintain the recommended tire pressure.
    5) The rider as well as the pillion seat is on a firm and comfortable side
    6) Engine heating is normal and will be updated after the highway-long trip.
    7) The only issue encountered till now is the gear downshifting. (gears getting stuck while downshifting and requires adjusting the clutch). Will get it resolved in first servicing. (gear upshifting is buttery smooth!)
    At the end, completely satisfied with the Hornet 2.0 and will recommend it to anyone who is looking for the most refined engine with excellent torque, daily city and highway commute, a large pillion seat, great power, and excellent mileage combo!!

  • Genuine review of my first bike 2.0 hornet

    3 years ago


    Prasanth Kumar

    1. Well about buying experience I feel like to this price they would have given dual abs, apart from that I feel pretty good 2. Riding experience is just awesome 3. And looks damn good like a monster and performance is just like a hulk 4. Servicing and maintenance of this bike is not a big deal 5. The only concern to Honda from my end is at least provide a optional dual abs for this bike.

  • Hornet 2.0 is awesome just go for !

    3 years ago


    Vignesh S

    Hornet version 2.0 is best in class sporty and naked body bike, which have a best engine life. It has a top speed of 130km/hr and it also comes with engine switch where hornet 1.0 has no switch. I personally prefer a black colour which is best in look. Low maintenance and easy available parts and also it has a riding comfort.

    Nice to ride, will give you a big bike feel,
    0-100 is pretty quick, but the comfortable cruising speed is around 6400rpm in 5th gear which is 85-90. As soon as you cross 110 kph the bike tends to feel stressed. The bike is super stable at this speed and confident aspiring. I choose this bike for the usd and
    Engine refinement is the key highlight.
    City riding and daily commute are good as the bike weighs only 142 kg kerb, which makes it easy to filter through the traffic the reason I would choose a motorcycle over a car in traffic.
    Even after all the premium feel this bike has to offer service and maintenance of this bike is easy on your pocket. Use chain spray after every 300-400 km ride and keep it clean.
    Pros.
    -looks
    -usd feels premium
    -gives you a big bike feel
    -stability
    -engine refinement.
    Cons
    -plastic quality and fit and finish could have been better.
    -headlight is not for a night ride on the highway with speed.
    -the rearview mirrors are useless
    -the chassis looks so basic, could have used two rods in front instead of a single.
    -the metal parts like the muffler catches rust soon.
    The paint quality on those metal parts could have been better.
    Last, I hope honda will not discontinue this bike, instead, they will upgrade this bike into a more premium package, if they discontinue this bike as they did with the legendary cbf stunner which was the previous bike I will surely not visit a honda showroom again in future.

    Over all best bike in its segment.
    Always a thrilling while riding, riding position is very good. The service provider is not so good.

    The buying experience of buying a Honda hornet 2.0 was really amazing at bajrang Honda showroom Nagpur. Paper work was hassle free and from the day i bought this bike till date, they have been really courteous and attentive to me. Specially, the service manager and showroom owner. And finally I would like to say that it is an gorgeous bike.

    The Honda Hornet 2.0 is already a capable handler and with a frugal engine, agreeable ergos, light handling and a comfortable ride, the Hornet makes for a great city bike. Moreover, I would suggest you to take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and comfort.

    The buying experience was good, staff at the showroom co-operated things nicely. The bike is way fun to ride as if I'm a honda guy the engine sound of my bike I love when I cross 6000 rpm, it's looks are also good, and nimble to ride. Low maintenance bike. Servicing was good. The cons are just its seat is stiff, compared to its rivals and everything thing is fantastic.

  • The MOST underrated beast!!!

    9 weeks ago


    Gaurav Bawadkar

    After a very long period of searching for the perfect bike, I finally settled on Hornet 2.0
    You'll find many reviews on Youtube so no need for a detailed explanation.
    Just remember the following key points:-
    1) I am using XP95 petrol and getting 48 Kmpl in the city (Hinjewadi-Wakad) (currently riding below 60 kmph)(This is before 1st servicing!)(accurate mileage test 3 times till now)
    2) This is the 2024 model and is a lot better and improved than the 2021-22 models (Almost all the issues are resolved)
    3) For comfort- Yes it is a little stiff but here's the catch- maintain 25psi in front and 29psi in rear(with pillion) (25psi without pillion)and you'll discover a whole new additional dimension of comfort💯(based on experience)
    4) For mileage improvement- Don't use the clutch unnecessarily, gentle throttle opening, and maintain the recommended tire pressure.
    5) The rider as well as the pillion seat is on a firm and comfortable side
    6) Engine heating is normal and will be updated after the highway-long trip.
    7) The only issue encountered till now is the gear downshifting. (gears getting stuck while downshifting and requires adjusting the clutch). Will get it resolved in first servicing. (gear upshifting is buttery smooth!)
    At the end, completely satisfied with the Hornet 2.0 and will recommend it to anyone who is looking for the most refined engine with excellent torque, daily city and highway commute, a large pillion seat, great power, and excellent mileage combo!!

    3 years ago

    1. Well about buying experience I feel like to this price they would have given dual abs, apart from that I feel pretty good 2. Riding experience is just awesome 3. And looks damn good like a monster and performance is just like a hulk 4. Servicing and maintenance of this bike is not a big deal 5. The only concern to Honda from my end is at least provide a optional dual abs for this bike.

    Hornet version 2.0 is best in class sporty and naked body bike, which have a best engine life. It has a top speed of 130km/hr and it also comes with engine switch where hornet 1.0 has no switch. I personally prefer a black colour which is best in look. Low maintenance and easy available parts and also it has a riding comfort.
